## Summary description

Active optical cable AOC CBO QSFP28 BlueOptics BO282803L20M provides 100 Gbps connectivity over a 20 m fiber link. Designed for high-speed server, switch and storage interconnects, this QSFP28 AOC delivers low latency and lower power consumption than comparable copper solutions. Ideal for data centers and aggregation layers where reliable 100G links are required.

## Long description

The AOC CBO QSFP28 BlueOptics BO282803L20M 100G active optical cable provides a 100 Gbps connection over a 20 m multimode fiber link. Engineered for high-density environments, this QSFP28 AOC supports reliable, low-latency data transmission between servers, switches and storage systems. Compared with equivalent copper interconnects, the active optical cable reduces power consumption and electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for modern data center topologies and aggregation layers where stable 100G links are required.
Advantages
This BlueOptics QSFP28 active optical cable ensures consistent 100G throughput with low insertion loss and high signal integrity over a 20 m reach. The AOC offers lower power draw and reduced heat dissipation compared with copper DACs, while its optical medium eliminates susceptibility to electromagnetic interference. Hot-pluggable QSFP28 connectivity simplifies installation and replacement in dense rack environments, and its industrial-grade construction supports reliable continuous operation in data center conditions.
Suitable for
High-speed server-to-switch connections within data center racks
Switch-to-switch aggregation and spine-leaf architectures
Interconnects between switches and storage arrays
High-density patching in network distribution panels
Key specifications
Data rate: 100 Gbps duplex
Connector type: QSFP28 form factor (hot-pluggable)
Medium: active optical cable (fiber-based)
Maximum reach: 20 meters
Latency: low, suitable for latency-sensitive applications
Power consumption: lower than comparable copper direct attach alternatives
EMI susceptibility: negligible compared with copper solutions
How to use
Install the QSFP28 AOC by aligning the connector with the QSFP28 port on each device and inserting until the latch engages. Ensure both ends are fully seated and that ports are powered and configured for 100G operation in the host devices. No separate transceivers or fiber patch cables are required; the cable integrates the optical transceivers and fiber in a single assembly. Verify link status and perform standard network checks to confirm the 100G connection is operational.
Usage recommendations
Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive stress on the connectors; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for optimal optical performance. Use in temperature-controlled rack environments and avoid exposure to fluids or contaminants. When replacing or moving the cable, handle the QSFP28 end gently and verify link negotiation and firmware compatibility on both connected devices.
